LESSON OF LIFE.
One flr morning ia June, Albert Fair
cLiid f.eletted from Lis wardrobe his most
teuULiful fcuit, and from h:3 bureau a goodly
fcUpt-Iy cf liccu, and with a countenance glow
ing :L j -jfal at:ic:j;atioa, c-jiimenco J pack
ing a car ucioue valise," aad making other pre-
araiioL- fcr a jourucy.
-ir. .i:u'ii raircLiia was pomg to visit a
yout-'g la iy, 1 wh'-iii it is reHce!-riry t) say
a few words before proceeding with the 6to
Josepliiiie Marvin reiled with her parents
iu a viiJne calud Ptkin. in order not to of
fend the modesty cf tbo inhabitants by using
:he Le name; ar. J out of the viila2e eiie
Lad DcTcr joiirneyed far, except on three oc
casiu&s. bhe had male three visits to rela
tions in town, with whom ehe Lad gpeut
mouths Iirs Mr. Albert FairchiM Faw
her. a luiirtd her, and en led by loving hr
devotedly. StisSd by her beauty and ex
cellence, Albert offered her Lis band; but
she said, "You uiu-.t come and see me at
home and become acja!tted with my j arents,
before exacting au engagement from c;e; for
it may be you will cot like them, and it is
pot-fcible they may not fancy you; in either
case I thoui J hetitatc tj accept your gracious
olfer."
MiM-MarviQ had returned to Ptkin, an l
cot Albert was tutfuiiog t visit her fauuiiy.
Coi.fi leEt that Josephine was incline 1 to fa
vor Lis suit, and blessed with a tolerably good
opinion of himself, which told him that the
Marvin would not probably object to his sta
tion in life or perstuial appearance, Albert
ect out on Lis j vim' j with excellent epirits.
Tie rst forty miles of LU journey Albert
accomplished iu the space of two hours At
a smali tovra he found himself compelled to
wait for a caeh to convey Lira to the vil
lage of Pekin.
Impatient to proceed, Albert became .ill
humored and grnmbb-d at the delay. To
whilo away tha tiroe he drank a cup ot'c-i&H?,
rat penny's worth oi' peanuts, read a few
paracrrcpLs in paper, and waikJ the parlor
iloor of the. inn with tho most impatient
ttriies
"Are you going to Pekin?" asked a quick
vo:c-.'.
Albert glanced at the ppeaker, who wa3 a
middle aged gentleman with a loosd drab
coat, a well developed waistcoat of woru and
faded velvet, a hat that had evidently been
u.-ed for years, and who presented a rough
ulJ careless appearance altogether. .
Albert had one fault which is common with
travellers.. lie had no : intention of making
himself goeiaLle, or even civil, in lbs com
pany of strange re. If au . unknown person
ofeked him a question ia the politest mauner,
he was s-ure to answer shortly, or giv? uo an
swer. "Moreover, Albert's motto, when trav
elling, trts, "Every one tor himself," and
this he made Lis rule of action.- A proposal
to put himself out of tbo way to accommo
date a stranger he would have ridiculed as
the height of absurdity.
Knowing: this disposition in our hero, the
reader will not be surprised that. Albert, in
stead of giving a simple affirmative autwer,
or even a responsive nod, regarded the rough
looking man a moment and passed on without
a word. ..........
Uut the eld geutleman with a drab coat
and faded velvet waistcoat, io spite of his
rough appearance, evidently possessed a pa
tient a good natured disposition, 'which was
not easily disturbed. Without appearing to
notice Albert's incivility, he quietly remarked
as he came iu his way again.
You are going to Pekin, I should Judge?'
What if I am?1 growled Albert.
'Oh, notuio,' answered the old gentle
man, with a goad natured smile, Johly I'd
advice you to book your uatue r a seat in
the stage at onco, if you bivo not done .fi-;
for I buvo no doubt but there will be ha'f a
dozen mora passengers' than the' coach caa
accommodate. , - -; -' -- "
Albert had not bookel .his name and: he
ought to Lave thanked the old gentleman for
his suggestion. So far, however, from man
ifesting any sense of obligation, he replied
with an insulting 'Ileml' and turned ab
ruptly oa his heel. . . ,
Albert found that there was but one sat
ia the stage coach left unengaged, and that
outside, Le had scarcely booked his name,
when Iwo other gentlemen came np in haste,
manifesting much dissappoiotmect on learn
ing that there was oo room for them iu the
next stage. Albert was therefore fully con
scious that he owed his chance to the old gen
tleman whom ho hal treated so rudely
Albert placed his valise on thefljor in the
public room, and sit down by his property to
beguile bU impatience with a smoke. lie
bad been tLuj employed for a few moments,
when the gentleman in the velvet waistcoat
cauie and sat down by bis rirht baud. Al
bert looked at hitu through the wreaths s of
smoke, a3 if the gentleman had been nothing
but smoke himself, of a di.-agreeabla quality;
and pulled away v. iihout noticing him lmtuer.
Will you be so good as to give tne the
time, sii : civilly asked the gentleman, glan
cing at Alberts showy fob-cbaiu.
Give you what:' mutttrrcd Albert, as if
ho had not understood at the same tiino puf
fing a volume of smcse in Lis good-humcred
face.
'The time, if you please sir. Is it eleven
o'clock:'
I don't know,' replied Albert without a look
at his watch.
A moment after the young man moved his
chair to auother part of the room, and sat
down his back towards the drab coat and vel
vet waistcoat.
The etage coach drove up shortly after, and
having discharged its passuugers aud changed
horses, made ready for the return route to :
Pekiti.

-Aioen ana auoincr traveller occupied a
seat designed to accommoJato three, directly
behind the driver. Uuth were slender men.
yet thej managed to spread themselves so as
to give the seat the appearance of being al-
ready lull. 1 he stage was ueariy ready to
depart when the old gentlemen iu the drab
coat came out of the tavern with a heavy car
pet bag ia Lis Land, and looked very iaqui
linglyiitthe outside passengers.
Iwoom for another up there' ho asked, smi-
uT a.i Albert.. "
Yu"re crowded low.' responded Albert,
suarpiy. .. .
You will have to get up there, sir,' said
the diiver, addressing tho drab coat. 'That
seat ought to accommodate three.'
Then I sur. po.c I must take my chance
with the rest of you,' cried the old gentle- '
man wita a good humored liugh, as he c.:med
up the stage. 'Sorry, young gealk-maa. to
trouble you to make me room, he added, when
neither Albert nor the traveller attempted ta
move; 'but I believe I am entitled to a seat
here! Ha! a tight lit ain't ilV
Ihe old gentleman who wa9 rather corpu
lent, appeared to take no notice cf the young
men's unaccommodating manner, but settel J
slowly and deliberately upon the seat, iu or
der to avoid an unpleasant pressure, to cou
traet their dimensions, and give him his share
of the room. -
This is'aa imposition!' cried Albert to the
driver.
'What is an imposition?'
'Look for yourself, this seat is too short for
three men of ordinary size; this corpulent
fellow will crush us!'
Lear me! I hepe not! exclaimed he. "I
shouldn't like to do that, I declare! Uut it

La't it? Ha
ha!, toa . much
flofch is boiiPjlimes inconvenient
to be sure.'
'Men over twenty-six inches broad should
buy two seats. said Albert.
IIa! ha'. laughed the good humored old
gentleman. '1 don't know but what wo fat
fellows ought t j pay fer the extra room wo
occupy.
You ought to have some regard for other
travellers,' said Albert, advocating a princi
ple which he never as yet considered him
self. That's a fact, replied the proprietor of
the velvet waistcoat. . 'We have no right to
disregard tbe feelings of others. I believe I
niu?t diet in-. corpulrney f;r the bcu.it of
society. Uut we will bj obliged tojist aim"
the best way we caa to-day. lor my suVtabcc
is rather sulid. AL! I am sorry to discom
mode you. 1 only wish for youc sake I was
smaller.'
TLis last remark wis followed ' by a good
natured laugh from all the outside pa?seu
gers oxeopt Albert, who had beoino most
decidedly sul!eu. .' ''...

its 1
uau,

and urgbd tbe horses iato a rapid pace. For
some time neither of the outsiders spoke each
appearing busy with his own thoughts. -At
length the gentleman in tho drab coat whoso
patience it seemed nothing could exhaust, aud
whesj even temper nothing could ruffle, re
marked, addressiug himself to Albert.
This is a really fine day, sir. Were you
ever in this part of ihe country before?'
No,' was the abrupt reply. -
'Don't you think it's a fine region? Ob
serve those hills, which tho spriug has spread
with green carpet, and remark how beautiful
yonder forest looks in the sunshine! This is
an excellent soil for a variety of agricultural
purposes well watered, as you perceive by a
river, which you may see glimmering through
yonder clump of fioe clump of peach trees'
The only reply that Albert gave ta thes-j
observations was wc are sorry tDsay a real
piggish sort of a grunt.
"You may travel the country.' pursued the
velvet waistcoat, and you will not " Sad a
more beautiful or fertile district thdn this.'
! grunted Albert. I .
;'.'TLe charae'er of the inhabitaats, too,
stands high, - They are plain common sacse

neai.' ; ; : -L ..' ' ;v -i. - j
f grnnted Albert.
'Wo are now ia Tekin,' pursued the old
gentleman after a long: pausi. TLere is a
fine tavern over the hiil.'
These remarks caused Albert to start. Lut
too proud to betray an interest in anything
the gentleman said, he maintained a studied
silence
Ihu3 Albert accomplished Lis journey, like
too in any travellers, ho disdained to appear
sociablo to stranges, little kvovring how
much useful information is sometimes gained

what became of his excellent friend of the
velvet wautcoat and drab coat, leaned off the
coach, and ordered his valiesg carried to Li
new apartments. While dressing himself
with great care the young man forgot, his ii
humor, in the globing auticipation Le en-
teitained ol a st-eedy and happy meeting with
I .lUPnlilTtP flavin f -i -
g partaken of a slight re
past, he cngaeed a buggy to transport him
to Mr. Marviu's residence.
The boy who went with the buggy drove
up before a spacious aud elegant white Lau.se,
which ha l a remarkable neat and comfortable
appearance.
This is Marvin's, sai l the boy; 'the big
gate is locked or I would drive ia, but you
can pass up the right hand path, which will
take you right to the door '
Albert gave the boy a shilling and leaped
lightly to the earth, catered the grounds by a
smaller gate, and with a beating heart has
tened to meet his Josephine.
a t il .a
s .viaert was passing up tne avenue a
circumstance occurred wnieU caused Liui coa
bideiable luorti&catiou. A laboring man iu
a slouched hat and tow Hock, who was at
work ruuud some youug, pear trees near the
house, turned as the young inaa approached
aud discovered the lamiiiiar. features evf Lis
old friend, tho corpulent genUcmau jur-velvet

ving man, having some meaus got permis

iuto respectable company away liom Lome,
and 'endeavors to establish himself oa a friend

bupposo I hal boen imiiiar with him what
a hue thing it would be to meet Lini at last in
his true capacity! I woudcr if 1 shall suffer
from his impel tiuence iu Mr. Marvin's Louse.
With tiieoe thoughu runuiug through his
braiu AlV-ristruii the heavy uocker, and
brought a girl to tha door. 11 j wus bhowu
into a grer, pilor inimeditely, ubcre he
had cot long to wait for Josephine.
To describe the meeting of the lovers would
be to Wiite" a gret mauy things which it is
well enough lor youug of teuJer seutimet to
bay, but which uo not .uad bo well repeated
to less piassiouate ears. SuHijo it that both
Albert aud Josephiue wore very happy to
meet again, and that the former took great
delight in pr&ising Mr. Marvin's residence,
while tbe latter was quite as well pleased at
La viug it praised. - -
You have really a lovely home so qviiet
and tasteful. Josephine, said Albert, 'an-i my
heart sinks within me when 1 thick of my

Oh, you shall sooa be gra'ISsI. I am
proud of uy paresis, Albert. Tuey are phuu

'Just the soil of peoplj to etiit me,' said
the eijihasiasuc lover.
Mrs. Marvin entered presently, and Al
bert was not disappointed, lie immediately

Albert felt himself about tiiikiug through
the- fijor.

met before - ,
Ah! my young friend of ihe stagecoach?"
exclaimed tne old geutleman. giviug AiLeria j
hand a hospitable shake. Cci taiaiy we have

This was like Leaping coals of fire upon
Albert's head. .His iaee burted with shaute
audhistouguJ sUiaaiered with coufusiou.
Makiug a very awkward attempt to say some
thing civil, ha sank upou a chair with kick
and ghastly looks, which frightened Jose
phine. .
Indeed,' pursued the old gentleman, as if
he remaiked nothing of Albert's rudenesd,
I little anticipated 'meeting you again soon.
How do you like the appearance of Pekin.'
Oh, w-e well!' summered Albert.
'Glad to hear itl And the appearance of
the inhabitants!'.
Oa, very very well!
Indeed! I was afraid you woolJ bavo no
fancy for us plain people
Thus tha old gciilsmaa went on, conver
ging iu the mott easy aud amiable inanuer, as
if ii was only his study, to euterlaia hisguest.
Albert lLitoued wuh a faiut. heart and up
braiding conscience, fctliog keeuly the con
trast between the old geuileman'a exeelleut
nature aad geuuine pVateucbS, and his own
.ill temper aud- iociviliity. ;
Iu a short, lime JosephinoV parents with
drew, aud she was lelt alone Jiiii. her mis
erable lover. Albeit 4hrew himself at her
feet, and thero, refusing U rise, Le confessed
hi. ill trtmsnt of hv vonerable pareut. and
berougbt her to forgive him and. inter cede
with her fatbsr for' bis pardon. Astonished

'such is tde.iaipa-jis ofpjopie. This sei-
and shocked at Grst Jesepbino knew cot what
to say cr thick, but to relieve her repentant
lover, t-he tock pity on Lis wretchedness, and
promised all hu a-keJ.
Indescribable waj Albert's anxiety of mind
until Josephine had srcn her father, and Le
came walking into ihe room where tne young
tnanwas aloce Mr. Marvin' eountenance wore
the same good natured smile, which eve u the
rude treatment Le had received at Albeit
bauds could not banish, and fiarskly extend
ing Lis hand be advanced towards his pros
pective soo-iu law.
Well, weil,' he exclaimed before Alt-crt
could speak, 'the pasteaneot be recalled, aid
I suppoee the less said about it the better.
For lut art I freely forgive the ungcntle-
manly manner iu which you used me. In fact
I care notuiag atout it ao, yet I mast say
that it gives me pain to thick that you are iu

Oh, tat kitM this lessjn, sir "
'You will act more I:ke a sensible man. I
believe it. Lut now I must confess that I
am a little to blame in this matter. I knew
you at the Erst from Josephiue's description.
You can, perhaps, imagiue my motive for
persecuting you with my unwelcome society.
Oh! my dear sii!' cried the tortured Al
bert. Ah! ah! It isu'ta very bad joke after all!
cried he, the velvet waistcoat undulating with
Lis peculiar happy laugh. Come! come! don't
look gloomy now. I ttli you the past i3 for
given but uiiud yc, yu must not forget it.
You must learn not to turn the shoulder to
corpulent old gentleman you meet ia strange
places, cvea thou h al wavs as disagreeable as
tao one you met to-day. ii. oa. lets nave a
good hearty laugh at the &!Liir and say no
more about it.'
Iu his grat.'.uJe for tho kindness with whi.h
the old gont!-?maa pail his ill-treatment, Al
bert kissed l is band wi:L tears glistening ia
bis eyes. Joephiu4 entered presently fal
lowed by Ler mother, and in half an hour
Mr. Marvin was she-wing Albert ab'utbis fa;m
and all were as hippy as if ro ulple3a-.t O:
curreuce had ever troubled their minc5s.
In a week Albert returned to town, a wiser,
happier, and better man. He had giinei
tbe consent of Josephine's parents to Lis mar
riage with the girl of Lis choir.-, and the
wedding Jy was appointed. For this aod
other goo'; reason's Albert's heart was over

The Talue cf Accuracy.
It is the resalt of evary day's exprrienea
that steady atteot:cn to mattarj of detail lies
at the root of bnmaa progre-; nt-I tii dili
gence above all, is the mother cf good lack.
Accuracy is a'so ofrauch importance, and an
invariable mark of govl training in a man.
Accuracy in observation, accuracy ia aetcb,
aeerrraey in the transaction cfaSair3. What
is done in business must be well done, for it
is better to accomplish peif cdj a small amount
of work than to half-do ton times as mush.
A wise man usjd to say, "Stay a little, that
we make an end tbe pooner." Too little at
tention, however, is paid to this highly im
portant quality of accuracy. As a toaa emi
nent in practical scietcc lately observed toca
'It is astonishing how few people I have met
ia the course of my experience who can d
5re a fact accurately." Yet in business af
fairs, it is the manner in which even amaU
matters are transacted, that often decides men
for or against you. While virtue, capacity,
and good eondat iu other respects, tha per
son who i? L ib:tu-.l!y inaccurate cannot b
trusted; bis work has to be gone over again;
an 1 Le thus causes endless annoyance, v.xa
tien and trouble.
